The Time Hotel

Good location, bad organisation

Well, we spent 11 nights in the Time Hotel in may 2007, so I may say that we had time to figure it out.
The reception and organisation of this rather new hotel is far but American ... after check-in (the receptionist complaining of how much work they have - although we were the only ones checking in ..) they gave us a standard room (tiny!) although it was clearly marked that we had paid extra for a kingsize bed ...ok we call from the room to ask another room and to check our reservation - no worries, somebody will come up immediately ...so we waited for 20 minutes - nada. We go down to the desk, explain the problem again, ok so we have to go up to another floor and wait there. We do that, wait another 20 minutes, nobody shows up ... back to the reception ...until finally we got our key...
The room is tiny but clean and modern. The windows open but the huge airconditioning machines on the roof of the building in front makes it impossible to enjoy fresh air (noise!).
Defenitely not enough storage room for more than 1 small suitcase. Bed and bathroom are excellent.
In the morning we went for breakfast in the hotelbar - not fresh and very amateur (apparently they were still constructing the real dining room..) we left asap to another place around the corner.
What really surprised us about the management is the way they use the 2 (only 2) elevators for the whole hotel. All cleaning personnel, deliveries, garbage, towels and sheets will go up and down with the costumers. Therefor you often cannot enter the elevator full of bags, garbage, etc. and the waiting time is considerable.
For a new hotel we found this a very strange organisation.

Unique Quality: The very best of this hotel :
a) the location
b) it is new and clean
